Hi, sorry for my bad english

I hope someone can help! Is there a possibility or plugin that I can integrate my mybb forum to bbpress?

I’m going to be honest: I tried other forum technologies before this one. Every website I saw with bbPress looked so drastically simple that it turned me away for the longest time. I tried many different popular forums but none of them worked, nor integrated, the way I wanted them to.

I decided to give bbPress a whirl. When I first set it up, I almost gave up because none of the features I truly wanted were there, or at least not in place. That’s when I decided to look up the coding itself. Talk about flexibility!

Anywho, after days of work and editing, I think I finally have a functional gaming-related forum to go along with my newly-created gaming-related website. I’m fairly proud of what I’ve accomplished thus far, but I wanted to hear from you guys, the forum that I have visited more than any others the past week. Take a look after the jump below!

Oh, and sign-up on the main website if you like games! More forum features are well on their way!

Hello,

Just wanted to tell that I have just ported Mystique theme to bbPress – I would be soon releasing it. Till then you can check out the live demo of it here:

http://www.cubetripods.com/forum/

Some notes:

• It currently doesn’t have a settings page but some settings can be set by editing the PHP files
• Requires avatars to be active
• Right now only works with trunk version of bbPress (didn’t check on 1.0, but it should work fine there except a few things which would be fairly easy to fix).

Thanks!

Ok so here’s what I’ve noticed in the past hour or two.

If I logged in via bbpress the admin link works, if I logged in via wordpress it does not.

Now I can just logout and login via bbpress to access the admin which is an ok workaround but I want to know why its not working when I login via wordpress.

[Anonymous User 6443559]

I just installed WordPress 3.0.1 in the root for an addon domain for my hosting. I installed bb-press 1.0 in a sub directory called forum. I intergrated with wordpress durring the install, that seems to have worked, bbpress shows me as logged in, but when I click on the admin link it just reloads the bbpress mainpage. When I try to go directly to the bb-admin by typing the path in it does the same.

Any ideas what would be causing this and how to fix?

Did this ever get solved?

Hey guys,

Anyone know why WP hooks, such as wp_head(), won’t work in a deeply integrated bbPress install?

[xtremetoonz]

I could have swore I tried that! haha

I logged out of both the bb and wp then logged back in to bbpress and wala!

Thanks Chris.

Is this for a Pagelines integration?

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/deep-integration-wordpress-bbpress-bb-configphp-errors

You need to paste that line into bb-config.php, almost anywhere. What were the errors when you tried it?

[chrishajer]

That player will scan a folder on your server and play those files. There is a plugin to allow the admin to post anything:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/admin-can-post-anything/

That would allow admins to post something like that.

There is no functionality like that, that I know of, to allow visitors to embed flash on their own.

There are also ways to allow members to post youtube or other videos.

If you wanted to use the flashmp3player.org player, you’d need a way to allow people to upload mp3 files to a folder on your server. You could use

bb-attachments for that, probably:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/

There’s no plugin that I know of right now that allows people to upload mp3 files to your server, and allow them to embed a player in their reply that will then play that file. Not to mention, you’d then be hosting mp3 files of unknown origin, and possibly opening up some security problems.

There’s probably a way for a plugin to show and embed an mp3 player when it detects a URL with an mp3 file in it. I don’t know if that plugin exists yet.

Hi,

I’m trying to instal bbpress and so far I managed to instal but I fail to integrate with WordPress

So I have WP in http://www.sitename.com/wpfolder, then inside wpfolder i added new one so my BBPress is instaled in http://www.sitename.com/wpfolder/bbfolder

And now I don’t know how to integrade

I’m getting this msg

Deep Integration With WordPress Required

It appears your WordPress installation isn't deeply integrated which is required for iBlogPro Forum to work correctly (it needs access to WP functions).



Please see Deep Integration With WordPress

so everytime when I call BBPress http://www.sitename.com/wpfolder/bbfolder I can’t see dashboard only this msg.

So I know that I need to add

Functions (optional)

bbPress will not have access to WordPress’ functions unless you manually tell bbPress to load WordPress first. This integration step is also known as “deep” integration, it is a totally optional part of integration and is not required to get shared cookies and logins working. In order to do it, you need to put require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/path/to/wp-load.php'); in bbPress’ bb-config.php (wp-load.php is in the same directory as WordPress’ wp-config.php file, so if your bbPress folder is directly inside your WordPress folder, the command becomes require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-load.php').

but I don’t know where to add, I tried in bb-config.php but I get some errors, to be hones and don’t know where to past code

require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-load.php');

so can somebody help me, or link me to some resources with answers?

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried logging out of WordPress then tried logging in to bbPress and then accessing the admin section?

If you want to reinstall, you will need to drop all the bb_ tables from the database. You will get this “upgrade” notice when there are bb_ tables in the database.

It almost looks like you used main_ for your bbPress database table prefix? I hope that is not the table prefix for your WordPress installation. If it is, then using the same prefix for bbPress means the bbPress installer tried to install into your WordPress tables.

[xtremetoonz]

I have a WordPress BBPress integrated site and I am no longer able to access my BBPress admin. I found a form post (http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/lost-key-master) about deleting the last few lines with meta_key starting wp_ of the bb_topicmeta table but I can’t find any tables with topicmeta anywhere in my WordPress/BBPress db. Any ideas?

[Zauxst]

Oh dear!



bbPress is already installed, but appears to require an upgrade.



Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?

This is what showes now when the Database Table is active with the current error. Clicking on the Upgrade Script does nothing only refreshes the web-page.

[Zauxst]

I get these strange errors after trying to install bbPress

I keep answering my own questions…

*sigh*

[zaerl]

Hi Paul. I’m afraid but the bbpress.org theme isn’t released.

[Paul]

Looked again and found this post ->

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-default-theme-1

Why wouldn’t this theme be available?

[Paul]

Is there some place where we can use the theme thats used on this very site? I’m in love with whats you got going on here but wondering if its available? I’m not loving any public themes out there…

Hi Bob,

Finished is not quite the word i’d use to describe it, but it works as intended.

I generally like to scope out all of the thing I want a plugin to do, and then I can add to it incrementally, which is why there are 4 functions with no code in them (but they’re never called, it’s more placeholders).

The code isn’t released under a GPL yet, not that I’d try submitting them here anyway given past horrors with the system, but please feel free to use it on your forums Bob, and shout me if you’ve any issues.

[pastorbobsforum]

Hello.

Is this plugin (Kevin’s) officially released?

Because the php file seems…unfinished.

Thank you.

Bob

I have already done this. Matter fact I went back in and changed all the key’s in my default template and then in my bbpress default template. Then I went into my bbpress admin and changed all keys once again.
